The best crowdfunded solution to block spam referrer from Google Analytics reports.

Everyday, plenty of new spam referring websites pollute our Google Analytics reports. We use a custom segment to exclude all spam sources from our reports but this task is really time consuming.

We hope that, with your help, we will be able to block them all in the long run. So please, send us all the spam referrers that are not already in our database to contribute to our cause.

Of course, feel free to download the most up to date Google Analytics Segment through the main menu of this page, even if you did not contribute.
